>> well, to me, i think that what the euro represents, or what the relationship between the euro and other currencies represent continues to be exaggerated by shifts in the ultimate dynamics of trying to score the economy. then you had in the big position growth that we've seen, and then you add in what japan is doing and i just think that you're really altering how the currencies are stocking up relative to each other. but i think there's very little doubt that the euro ended up with a lot more on the long side as the funding issues from europe moderated a little bit. probably pushing it to a level that was not really sustainable. >> rick, what's out there is this notion that japan is purposefully weakening the yen, and so you get a little flight from the yen and it looks like in that flight the euro is catching more of the running money than the dollar is. i think that's one way to think about it. i also think that you don't have clarity here when it comes to the outlook for the u.s. fiscal policy. or the u.s. fed policy that doesn't really enjointer confidence in the greenback. ag
